A winter storm dumped nearly three inches of snow on the region before changing to ice and rain.

According to the National Weather Service, 2.8 inches of snow fell across Stafford County and eastern Prince William County. More snow fell in western Prince William County, where snow totals registered about three and a half inches.

Snow began falling just after noon and quickly covered roadways. Shortly after, snow covered Interstate 95 in Dumfries, where plow trains removed the snow and spread salt and sand.
